  • Mainstream Media is poisonous.

    

  • Ron Paul 2012, im concerned about poll cheating though...

  • You can tell that the host doesn't comprehend that the world is filled with independent thinkers. He's still trying to figure out who's running the show.

  • She thinks Mitt should have spent more than 1 million on his Internet Campaign. He spent 54 million since last quarter on his entire campaign, Im sure alot was on the Internet too. Hes in debt 17 million now reported by the FEC. Do you think RP even spent 1 million on his Internet campaign? I doubt it. RP just has the right message, Mitt would have nothing to say if he spent a billion. Now RP will close to 20 million in the bank

  • Great Video here, I also loved RP's interview tonight on Glenn Beck, finally a full hour show all about RP and Glenn Beck seemed to want to hug Dr Paul so bad, made his eyes tear up.

    Also the best interview Ive heard yet is the Radio Show on KWQW. Macs World. By the way, 2008HorseRace dot com finally included RP in their POLL. But hes losing so its rigged or not enough supporters know to check it again. Go there now!

  • Right on dude, go Ron Paul, he's still gonna suprise people :)

  • awesome job taco john...

  • The comments by the anchor shows he doesn't get it. The candidate doesn't control the internet, the internet just gives people the platform to be heard. Why do they think Ron Paul is "leveraging" the internet? He is presenting ideas, and people like them. Every other candidate could leverage the internet if they had better ideas/vision.

  • MYSPACE totally censored Ron Paul...

    those pictures they jsut showed...are all bullshit...try the CNN scorecard...or msnbc....

    THEY show Ron Paul getting more than DOUBLE than any other candidate.

  • You can't BUY ideas...That's what makes the internet so great...Advertising doesn't matter..the message is all that counts...People who use the internet...are not stupid...people who watch televison..WERE! They are a minority now... not many people only watch tv...not many who get out of their chairs to vote!!!

  • Got the "EAST COAST " blimp..NOW for the West COAST BLIMP!!! Then one for Denver and Texas!!!

    How about FOUR BLIMPS!!! We can afford it!

  • Will it trun in to real votes. I do not know. But i do know it truned in to real money.

  • RON PAUL OF 2008

  • I MEAN WHAT THE FUCK?!?!

    SERIOUSLY, why the FUCK do everyone care HOW you reached out to the people, EVERYONE isn't so fucking dumb who vote for a candidate you just saw on tv/internet.

    Some do really care about the message belive it or not.

  • I can't hear it anymore too.

    always trying to marginalise the truth Ron speaks as just catchy stuff that attracts "Internetpeople".

    Fox is plain Propaganda.

    To someone from outside the USA it couldn't be more obvious..

  • where was the stats for meetup members... people that get out of their chairs and hit the streets. Dr Paul has them all blown away.. check them out at techpresident dot com. Meetup members exceeds 77,000 volunteers and only Obama comes closest at just over 5,500.

  • Who gives a shit if Ron Paul has all the friends on myspace and youtube. If you guys don't show up at the voting booth come election day all this money and hype will be worthless. People always talk about courting the young people and how to get out the young people out to vote. But the fact of the matter is that young people DONT VOTE. They're always asleep in a ditch somewhere come election day.

  • CNN is trying real hard to put bad light on Dr Paul.  They jest don't get the people are pissed and fed up with nanny gov. and MT sound bytes. If the major networks don't figure this out they will be talking to MT air or cable. The more they bad mouth Dr Paul the more money I send.

  • Everyone needs to get registered and vote in the primaries , now!

  • Ron Paul has the most friends on YouTube....,BUT they didn't show that one. Did any one notice it???

  • Ron Paul has the most friends on YouTube....,BUT they didn't show that one. Did any one notice it???

  • RonPaul2008(dot)com

    for contributions.

    Donate and Vote. (Hope for America)

    Every canadate are scared to debate Ron Paul. Ron Paul has already kicked Rudy Giuliannis ass. Ron Paul kicked John McFlip-Floper ass second. I wonder..whos next? hhmm.

  • Lets leave Iraq and NOT ILLEGALLY INVADE A SOVEREIGN NATION, NOT ILLEGALLY NATION BUILD. America is going bankrupt.

    Ron Paul 2008

    Ron Paul is TRUELY the man of the people.

    Ron Paul will RESTORE the CONSTITUTION!

    Ron Paul will STOP the ILLEGAL INVASION of Iraq!

    Ron Paul will NOT tolerate people breaking laws(Bush/Cheney)

  • That was a tasty taco. Very nice job Isaac! You were tiny whiny toward the end, but you did manage to get the chance to finish your point. Too bad the host talked over the URL for the tea party, but that's relatively minor. Overall this was GREAT!

    RP 08 FTW

  • Main media is asking:

    who the hell is RON PAUL !!

    so am I.

    will listen tonight on debate and hope to hear Paul stand up show some leadership and tell voters what exactly he'll do if elected dealing with open borders.

    will Paul show leadership and tell us if he'll close borders first 30 days in office ?

  • that women has possibly the worst voice I have ever heard.

  • I know, I wanted to clear my throat the whole time. I even coughed once. I think I saw her on SNL

  • Smart move by fox. Evryone stops listening whn they critisize ron paul so now they play on 'let's limit this guy as an internet phenomenon. This video is abour internet campaigning and not how ron paul is any good. Fox is a corrupt, politacally motivated news network

  • That's why the revolution is now, we have to expose the true ones of liberty which will expose the corrupt for what they are

  • Taco John is cheesy soft taco, he pawned these guys and told it like it was. Everyone get writing chalk for you r car and write a Ron Paul message so people can become aware! I have Ron Paul 2008 dot com written on the back of my ride. Go Ron!!!

  • Ron Paul!

  • Spread the word to the older "non-internet" folks. Have them call 1-877-RON-PAUL to donate, voluteer, and/or get info. That's 1-877-766-7285.

  • Yeah and everyone who can travel to Iowa and help out the meetup groups with canvassing better get moving.

  • It boils down to this- when people have a free forum to hear all the pros and cons of all the candidates- RON PAUL PWNS. If every American bothered informing themselves properly like those on the internet mostly do, Ron Paul would win in the same sort of landslide he does in online polls

  • but in all reality, how much of a chance u give dr. paul to win? like become da next prez.

  • That was surprisingly fair and balanced.

  • Fox business is actually quite good. Its kinda unnerving...

  • agreed. my only, rather paranoid, niggle is how they picked unattractive people with weird voices to talk about the internet

  • it may the Roids or deep throat that causes this voice.

  • YEah, Taco John PWND them.

  • Taco John should have explained how its not candidates using the internet the boosts there campaigns, but rather the fact that the internet provides forums for unlimited and uncontrolled information. If not for the internet and all i watched was the news i would never have known about Ron Paul!!!

  • Is Susan a man? Goddamn woman, you need to cut back on the cigs.

  • That wasn't the cigs. She got donged.

  • hahahaha mate, first thought on my mind! wht's up wid da scary voice?

  • Susan needs to stop smoking. That voice is pretty harsh.

  • lol a fuckn blimp

  • It doesn't matter how much money the "top tier" candidates put into the net, Ron Paul owns it. He's past that already anyways.

  • Interesting how the media just talks about how amazing his internet support is instead of talking about what parts of his platform they disagree with. Maybe there's nothing logical to disagree with. Live long and prosper.

  • So refreshing to see someone call mainstream media poisonous :) Did you see how fast they got him off camera after he said that?

  • Did you also notice that when the blonde was comparing Ron Paul to Thomas Jefferson, they cut that part of the clip?

  • this prog is full of shit. the blatently biased host...

  • Omg, the internet!

  • When I look at the blonde lady I feel like I'm on shrooms because her lips spread open so wide! Anyone know what I'm talking about?

  • Yeah, I kinda feel like she belongs on The Muppet Show with Guy Smiley.

  • Do you people ever get tired of making fun of fox news? Holy crap! A slightly right wing news station! They're like the nazis! BOOOOO

    Honestly, the other 900 news channels are way more left wing than fox is right wing. A single right wing voice on television and you want to silence it? Good job in understanding the value of different voices and perspectives.

    Seems like the left wings idea of diversity in opinion is different shades of democrats having a debate.

  • but they callit fair and balanced when it isn't. watch out foxed

  • Way to give it to um Taco John!!!

  • Faux News being positive about Ron Paul? WOW!

  • i would say their being nuteral at best. they have much to make up for... but at least they're giving him air time.

  • Also it's Faux BUSINESS Channel probably once removed from the corporate heavy hand.

  • It's like watching pupets talking about donuts.

    They are so way back in the 20th century, there's just no hope for those people.

  • Let them try to duplicate Ron Paul's success on the internet - they'll just be wasting their time and money! Ron Paul is doing so well BECAUSE OF HIS MESSAGE! He's the candidate that most people who learn about him have been waiting for! Maybe the IRS hates him, but so what? Same thing for the CFR, Federal Reserve, and so on. But the people, the MAJORITY, are waking up and THAT is why he's doing so well online! BECAUSE THE MEDIA ISN'T COVERING HIM!

  • It's amazing...outsiders...leveragi­ng the internet...they just don't get it.

  • Blimp!!!

  • RP's campain is not usual because it involves mostly individuals who care about the country, not special interest groups who are driving politicans. Idiots!

  • Internet is for independent people who can watch what they want. It seems that most prefer Freedom and Ron Paul, what's the big deal?

  • Leverage the internet? Hahahaha. Those chumps'll never understand it. They thing Ron Paul's some internet king. He just follows the Constitution. You don't have to spend a million dollars on your internet campaign to do that.

  • The internet is the tool, the message is freedom and Ron Paul is the messenger.

  • I bet my freedom on Paul!

  • WHAT the hell happens at 2:09 !?!?

    Whoops what?

  • but she looks good, much younger than I would have thought. And she's a smart cookie.

  • I always imagined Susan Esterich was some 77 year old woman who'd been smoking for 76 years.

  • Susan Estrich hit on a very important point, it's he who has the delegates that wins.

    What does it take to become a delegate in your state? How bad do you want Ron Paul to win? I urge everyone to do your homework and get involved. This can happen if we make it happen.

  • Is it just me or does that blonde lady sound just like Harvey Fierstein?

    By the way, I hope Ron Paul wins.....please Iowa and New Hampshire, don't contribute to the downfall of America, Vote for Ron Paul. Get his message out there.

  • RON PAUL THE CHAMPION OF THE CONSTITUTION! And Soon To Be Mr.PRESIDENT!!

  • These old stream media hacks don't quite get do they? Maybe, just maybe the reason why a presidential candidate gets traction on the internet is because of their ideas that they present to the grassroots. The reason why the Obama Money Bomb fizzles and only generated $4,000+ is because his ideas aren't that good. Wake up MSM.

  • Good Job Taco John!!!! GQ Magazine Ron Paul man of the year!!!

  • I think Taco John got to fiesty. That guy has actually been very fair to Ron Paul.

  • You're right. As Ron Paul supporters, we have to be carefull because the "feisty" and "crazy" tag is already being slapped on us. Look at how calm and collected Dr. Paul is all of the time, even with this criticism. I do like the fact that Taco John mentioned that you can't buy the internet. The internet is the one place where you get a majority of free thinkers.

  • Wonderful Taco John.

    Fox Business was fair here. Wish its peers would follow suit.

    Dr. Paul Rocks!!

  • George should just write his check on Dec 16 and get it over with before he loses even more money on his "bet".

  • This interviewer is missing the point, Paul isn't popular because he's 'harnessed the innernet', it's because there has been a latent desire for a no BS leader and the main stream media has been ignoring him.

    It isn't fringe players that do well on the internet, it's leaders who reflect the desires of the people, there just happens to be very few of them and the msm won't cover them because they don't serve big business.

  • The screen goes black whenever someone lies.

  • all these women inclined to vote for hillary w/o knowing wtf she stands for other than the fact that she's a woman..

  • You just wait until Dec 16th MrFox! Go Ron Paul!

    Ron Paul 08!!!

  • Think about this for a moment: Fox is very careful an intentional about who they choose to represent each view. They are happy to let their enemies represent opposing views, but they will be very careful about who is representing them. We can see this in Hannity and Colmes - Colmes is intentionally chosen and styled to appear weak, weasel-ish and to not have a strong speaking voice.

  • Thats a good observation.

  • Thanks. Don't you think that the Ron Paul supporter was kind of whiny, insistent, uncomfortable and insecure? I mean, beyond the typical nervousness that a person would feel on TV. It reminded me of those people on internet boards who have too much invested in 'winning an argument' etc. People don't care what you say - they care about how you come across and how you appear. If they smell insecurity or unhappiness then they will often just write off your opinions.

  • I think he had a good message, but he looks kind of autistic, which might send out a subliminal message that Ron Paul supporters are retarded autistic nerds that never sleep.

    But then again, thats just more conspiracy theory crap.

  • Not really conspiracy related. It's just the way media businesses work - especially FOX. Everything people say on these shows, every guest that Fox invites is carefully and intentionally chosen to achieve some goal or another. Watch "FOX and friends" to see a perfect example of partially scripted dialogue being passed off as casual converstation. It's mostly just to get more ratings or to support candidates with big advertising budgets.

  • You should write a book on the subject.

  • There's a pretty good documentary called "outfoxed" on this subject.

  • Pleaaase! who wouldn't be nervous on national television! I think TJ did an awesome job. Sure he was nervous, so what?! He did it and did it right! Fox kept trying to cut him off but he is a firm believer in RP and he got his point out there. Compared to someone who is just on there in their fancy suit to glory in their 15 min of fame. Awesome job Taco John and GO RON PAUL!

  • Well done Mr.Ron Paul Supporter.

    I impressed by the "independent people" part, kudos. :)

  • dec 16!

  • I would like to see Guiliani or Romney bark orders at me on the internet. haha

    Run Ronnie Run, these guys don't have a clue.

  • "I would like to see Guiliani or Romney bark orders at me on the internet. haha"

    Agreed. LOL! These FOX tools just don't get it do they? They're like chunks of Spam dressed up for TV.

  • Let's waterboard them both and then let them decide whether it's torture.  Post the videos on the Internet.

  • To me, watching FOX is like being waterboarded! I mean really, they make me feel sick.

  • I'm glad to hear mention of the Ron Paul Blimp, I'm also planning to make my donation for the tea party.

  • I think the fox news guys mic is set louder compared to the guests... every time he talks it's way louder than the guests...

  • Fox commentators are such loudmouths. Ecchh.

  • RIGHT ON!!!!!

  • Hello, most people capable of thinking don't vote based on a candidates political ads. So spending money on the internet will not translate into votes. If you want people on the internet to view your candidacy as legitimate try not being a corrupt POS to start with! Go Ron Paul 2008!

  • It does not matter how much money the other candidates put into the internet, they DO NOT HAVE THE SUPPORT.

  • One of the guests commented that 'the other candidates haven't spent that much on their internet campaigns', as if that were the problem. RP hasn't spent any on his internet campaign either! That's the point.

  • One of the guests made a comment that 'the other candidates haven't spent very much on their internet campaigns'. Neither has RP!! That's the point TJ was trying to make.

  • TJ, I'm also glad you

    (2) tried to move the conversation to showing that the internet is finally a mechanism to allow free individuals to associate unfettered and share ideas that they agree on, which leads to the kind of action we're now seeing with the RP campaign.

  • Props Taco John,

    You did your best to help change these folks' paradigm. I'm so glad you

    (1) tried to change the language of 'fringe candidate', 'outsider', and 'fighting the establishment'. RP is so NOT fringe -- he's an honest, hardworking American who understands the proper role of government.

  • Did you hear that? Vote in the caucuses and become delegates. Those are the two main things we must accomplish. Decide now who will represent you in your area or none of this will matter.

  • that blonde lady sounds like a dude

  • ha yeah

  • The internet is just the conduit. It is ALL ABOUT THE MESSAGE. RON PAUL for President 2008!

  • yes.

  • We need to understand that the people who use the internet are the one's who see information from its source. The candidate himself/herself is not the source...it is the candidates words, actions, and record from the past (the only logical rationale to assess what he/she will do with the future)

    The internet picks the most honest, reliable, and American source. That is why a candidate cannot choose the internet. The internet chooses the candidate that represents the most credible source.

  • When will somebody say "the candidate doesn't pick the internet, the internet picks the candidate; because the people who use the internet see information unfiltered, from the source...that source is not the candidate him/herself, it is the candidates words, actions, and record." Ron Paul is the only candidate that exhibits a truely principled, unfettered, and truely American source.

  • Clueless, you cannot buy internet support, hello! Spend millions on the internet if no one buys it, it's waisted money!

  • Hillary should spend ALL of her money on the internet. That is what she should do. :]

  • hah hah. I agree;)

  • Taco John had it right when he said "you can't bark orders at people...." The internet is great leveler, because those who care voice their opinions and if a candidate motivates the public it shows on the internet.

  • The "experts" just don't get it, while someone called Taco John does.

    Hillary, Romney et al could spend all they want on the internet and it wouldn't make one bit of difference.

    It's like trying to draw Excalibur from the stone. If you have integrity, trust and the right message, it will slide right out.

  • Nice comparison.

  • It's all here for you to see and with nearly a year to go in the campaign! Cmon America. As usual, the world is watching you and wishing it had the balls to be like you.

    That said, please start translating all this support to something that will get Ron Paul elected ie join your Republican party and get involved.

  • We see that in many of these interviews, the MSM representative is actually sympathetic to Dr. Paul. The message of freedom breeds excitement; how could it be otherwise?

  • This interview is a watershed event. The MSM invited an 'internet' representative on to discuss things along with the well connected mainstream voices.

  • MAN this dude was pushing FOx News for his light to shine for all of us independent Paul Grass roots folks..He was a tid bit pushy but he knows his stuff

  • People do not understand the power of the internet. They are stuck in the past.

    Ron Paul 2008

  • That blonde woman sounds like the girl from the exorcist.

  • Dr. Paul summed it up best at one of the rallies. I think he said something like "The key to having a strong grassroots support is to have a message worth listening to."

    That's why none of the other candidates have "cracked the code" of the internet. It's because they're still just trying to use the internet as another way of selling the same old empty slogans.

  • yes, even with you telling the other candidates the answer they will do things the same old way!

  • The real question is can the other status quo candidates translate no support into primary votes? The way that lady asked the question about whether or not we can translate support into votes with a smile almost makes me think they have plans to rig the voting results or something. Like they know for certain the prize is their's.

  • "I am a friend of the Free State Project. Check it out...and if you like it, join and continue the effort!" -- Rep. Ron Paul

    FreeStateProject*org/intro/ron­_paul

  • Pretty good discussion and somewhat fair interview.

    The Fox guy just doesn't get it. Ron Paul is not running for President; the Internet is running Ron Paul.

  • Ron Paul will unite the free thinkers of America!

    No longer will the federal government control our lives...

    No longer will longer will we spend trillions of dollars on wars and puppet dictators...

    No longer will our education be micro-managed by bumbeling bureaucrats...

    No longer will the US dollar shrink in value untill it is worth less than the paper it is printed on!

    Unite! Ron Paul 2008

  • this is probably the best discussion i've seen on Ron Paul yet!

  • ya, this isn't the fox that i know.

  • taco john, well said!

  • When will these hacks get two brain cells and realize that supporters that show up at straw polls will also become delegates and show up at voting polls? Harness the internet? Thanks Taco John for finally dispelling that far fetched myth. As if money and marketing can drive this kind of patriotic feeling toward the old political aristocracy. Get a clue MSM.

  • Faux get a clue!

    Great job Taco!

    Posted on:

    RONPAULFORPRESIDENT2008. COM

  • well done taco, but it was frustrating to watch. they just don't get it do they?

    "It's the message stupid"

  • Wow, Taco John I'm impressed. You did very well!

  • WOW!!!!

  • Tremendous job, Taco John! Susan Estrich is telling the truth tho, people. Its about more than bumper stickers.

  • Yes, she is. Regardless all of the diggs, comments, emails, phone calls, and text votes, primary votes will determine this election. All of this definitely helps for spreading the message of Ron Paul, but instead of focusing on maintaining a redundant internet community for Dr. Paul, we should focus on introducing more people to his message. That is the only way we will see this man in the White House.

    USC for Ron Paul.

  • Did they really need to add the group of idiots? They're saying the same things. Oy!

  • They totally miss the point that "The Message" is what rallies Support...not the "tweaking on the internet".... it's not a technology fix (stupid technocrats)... It's an IDEOLOGICAL/PHILOSOPHICAL impact. Ron Paul (or any other candidate or campaign manager) has no control of the what people are attracted to.

  • I wish I could give you multiple thumbs up.

  • Good job, way to use my suggestions!

  • WOOOOO! TACO JOHN!!!

  • They totally miss the point when they talk about how the other campaigns put certain amounts of money into their internet campaign. They're still thinking "top-down."

  • Btw, Isaac does a hell of a job putting the media in place, even they continually interrupt him and indirectly marginalizing the campaign

  • Great job Taco John!

  • You hear that people??

    The ONLY way for Ron Paul to win is for supporters to show up at the primaries and become DELEGATES!!!!

    DELEGATES IS KEY!

  • VERY true.

  • Unfortunately my district here in Ohio only needed one more female and this was months ago. However there is still time and still some open spots.

  • Like a libertarian could be a control freak even if he wanted to be...LOL.

    I pray that Ron Paul wins the election. It will be good for America's psyche.

  • THEY JUST DON'T GET IT

  • Good going Taco!

  • Great job Taco John!!!

  • Dude! Taco did awesome on here!

  • Yeah. Ron Paul supporters are the smartest ever. EVA.

  • Way to bully 'em Taco John! You got that dec. 16th out there.

  • and the blimp too.

    way to go Taco

  • Nice one taco
